VEEP WINA CALLS FOR TIGHTER SECURITY ON PUBLIC INFRASTRUCTURE

VICE President Inonge Wina says climate change and acts of terrorism are the biggest challenges the world is currently facing.

“Time is therefore ripe for Zambia to take greater steps in preventing acts of terrorism,” Mrs. Wina added.

She said Government had invested heavily in building public infrastructure which needed latest technology to protect it.

“Private sector investors that have built large scale infrastructure such as mines and shopping malls should enhance security to prevent disaster hazards,” the Republican Vice President said.

Mrs. Wina was speaking in Indore City in the Indian State of Madhya Pradesh when she held talks with India’s Eagle Techsec Communications, an Indian company specialised in the protection of large-scale public infrastructure.

“I wish to urge Eagle Techsec Communications Chief Executive Officer Harsh Gupta to submit a Letter of Intent through Zambia High Commission in India for intensive assessment to ascertain viability,” she said.

This was contained in a statement released by First Secretary Press and Tourism at the Zambian Mission in India Bangwe Naviley.
